Quick CX 4

Details

Up for anything, Cannondale's Quick CX is fast and fun everywhere—from pavement to dirt to potholed city streets. Its mountain bike-inspired frame, suspension fork, wide 700x38c multi-surface tires, and disc brakes deliver sure-footed performance anywhere you choose to ride. With a better fit for multi-surface riding, as well as SAVE Micro-Suspension seat and chainstays, the Quick CX brings maximum versatility and fun to all of your rides. You'll love the high-quality Shimano components and tough, durable handlebar, stem, and seatpost from Cannondale.

I picked this bike up as soon as I could after seeing it in my LBS. It is dead sexy. Black with subtle Metalic Gray Logo and anodized Red accents (just enough color) This is my first Hybrid bike and the geometry is great. Very comfortable. Disc Brakes are perfect (aside from a bit squeeky, they stop how they should!) shifting is responsive. I set it up with a Bontrager seatpost rack and bag for all of my stuff: Lock, Inflation kit, Lunch, Clothes for work.. I would recommend it to anyone who is looking for a dynamite bike to ride on a daily basis.

This bike was a "gift" but i picked it out. I spent a very long time researching the Specialized Crosstrail series and the Trek PDX and the FX line. I wanted something that would be fast on road, but rugged enough to take my wieght, 290lb. No one in my city had either of those bikes. On an off chance i went to my local outdoors shop( a truly local shop, not a [...]) and a close friend of mine was working and we spent the better part of an hour trying out various cannondales and a couple other brands, most of which were way out of my price range. THis bike beats the hell out of the Trek PDX and though it isn't as beefy as the specialized, it is lighter and faster. The bike puts you in an upright position which is a bit wierd since i've only ridden mountain bikes for the last decade, but it is nice. The saddle is really comfortable, but because i'm out of shape, i put a softer seat on it that sould support my wieght better. Anyone smaller than me wouldn't have any problems with the seat at all. Weather permitting, i try and use my bike for commuting, exercise, and recreation. It has 700c x 37 tires, so there aren't too small, but they aren't too big either. The frame is pretty light, not as light as it could be, but then again it was only 585.00 for it after tax( thank you black friday). The first night i had it i tried to bunny hop it onto a curb and the back tre caught the curb and blew out a tube. i put a slightly smaller tube with less air in it and haven't had a problems since. the disc breaks work very well, but they do squeek. All and all i would recommend this bike for entry level/ moderate bicycling for commuting. It will also do well or very well maintained paths.
